Hi

I need to complete a large form - 30 odd pages.  I dont want to use Adobe because it always catches meout on expensive 'free trials'.

Is there any software that I can use which means that I don't have to enter credit/debit card information.

I'd print the forms out but I'm on the ruddy expensive hewlett packard ink/printer set-up!

    Bit of a long shot but if you know anyone with a Mac or MAcBook you can annotate PDF's using the Preview App.

    Kind Regards,

    I used Foxit. There's a free version.

    If the PDF is relatively simple, Edge browser can fill and save forms

    Just used PDFfiller - Google said it was free.  Edited/completed 9 pages of form filling, went to Download and guess what?  Yes, you have to sign up for a trial with your credit card details!

    I've never given any payment information to Foxit but I've annotated and saved dozens of PDFs using it.
    The installer will try to upsell you to a free trial of the paid version, but you can decline.

    I use PDF24 Toolkit never paid but not used for many multi page documents. I think there is a web based version but I use the downloadable version so everything stays on my computer.

    Google docs will do that. 
    No reliance should be placed on the above! Absolutely none, do you hear?

    Foxit always fits the bill here

    If the PDF has actually been saved as a form then you can use the free Adobe Acrobat Reader and not pay to fill in the form.  If the PDF isn't a form then this won't work.
